Os Gemeos

Os Gêmeos (Portuguese for The Twins) are graffiti artist identical twin brothers from São Paulo, Brazil. Their real names are Otavio and Gustavo Pandolfo and were born in 1974. They started painting graffiti in 1987 and gradually became a main influence in the local scene, helping to define Brazil's own style. Their work often features yellow-skinned characters - taken from the yellow tinge both of the twins have in their dreams - but is otherwise diverse and ranges from tags to complicated murals. Subjects range from family portraits to commentary on São Paulo's social and political circumstances, as well as Brazilian folklore. Their graffiti style was influenced by both traditional hip hop style and the Brazilian pixação

I like the detail and variety they creates in their work. The colours are often very bright.

Graffiti can sometimes be messy and not planned out well, but this work is well organised and has great detail which is what i love about it.

All his work looks as if they have painted onto canvas because it is so detailed and clean.

Os Gemeos choose old buildings to paint on, and also odd areas, such as outside prisons.
